Thank you very much for this review video. I'm in the states and have been wanting a new accurate light weight rifle for hunting/plinking and this rifle is on my radar. I do not plan on entering any sanctioned competition shooting but it looks to be a great contender for the friendly contests we have at our private gun range. With the current ammo crunch will this rifle easily handle lower tier bulk ammo? I realize that would be like trying to run regular gas in a Ferrari. I do have some higher end ammo but mostly what is readily available here now is Remington Thunderbolt, etc. of which I have a bolt load of including CCI .22 quiet that I use for night time backyard raccoon hunting with my old 881 Marlin b/a. Thanks again for the video.

Enjoyed this review very much! Do you find that SK ammo to be your preferred target ammo for all your CZ 457's? I'm still testing different ammo in my LRP. It seems to shoot everything well out to 50 yards but past that SK rifle match does well and I'm working on 200 yards + at this time.

Hi Chris, I've just bought a CZ 457 as above. Since the optics that I'm not selling with my old rifle are Piccatinny compatible, I will need to get a slide on rail. I've seen that the CZ Pt. rail has a gap over the ejector port. Do you think the gap is necessary to allow spent bullet casing to leave the gun smoothly?

@averageoutdoorsmannz2015 2 жыл бұрын

Had my eyes on one of these (and that exact scope as well), however I'm just wondering if there is going to be much difference in accuracy between the light barrel and varmint barrels (and if the vamrint may be more forgiving on different ammo). Is it worth spending the extra money / weight for the varmint barrel? Plans are for a competition 22. Great video by the way, exactly what I was looking for.

@MKChase-uj9vx 2 жыл бұрын

Hi pal I shoot a CZ 455 .22lr with a walnut stock and heavy barrel and I always say; it's the one rifle I'll can't imagine ever selling. Accuracy and build are exceptional for the money and the heavy barrel takes a little longer to get hot... but conversely, longer to cool. I don't find the weight an issue and if you are target shooting then I only see it as a plus. I use it for rabbits and have no issues taking 100 meter shots, the rifle will out shoot me, all day long. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend one pal.

Incredible accuracy. No reason to choose varmint . Can you show or describe own "Hit pattern data chart" (included sheet)? The question is - should I pay attention to it when I buy CZ 457?

I had my heart set on the 20" Varmint model with the heavy barrel but after watching this i might go for the synthetic, the accuracy seems to be just as good with the light weight barrel of this synthetic model, ....... why? I thought the lightweight barrels were not as accurate

took the synthetic out today shot a bunch of SK. it really likes rifle match and surprisingly pistol match! looked for that winchester here in canada, no go. closest was winchester m-22. that stuff you have is the ultimate varmint round. well, for your particular rifle anyway. cheers.

Hello Chris ! First of all thank you for all your videos 🙏 I will buy a .22 rimfire, but I hesitate between this CZ 457 synthetic and the Savage B22 precision. I love the chassis and the look of the savage, and the trigger seems to be really good, but some people criticise it because of its « bad » reliability. The CZ seems to be incredibly reliable, and precise, but the chassis and the ergonomics... What do you think about it ? And which one is the more precise according to you ? I hope you will see this comment and answer it 🤞🙏 thanks a lot ! (I’m sorry if my english is not really good, I’m french)

You mean that you had extraction and feeding issues all along the video on the Savage ? Or that I should watch it ? I’ve already watched it, but everything seems ok with the savage. According to what I see in your video it seems to be a really good gun, no issues, nice groups, nice bolt and nice chassis. It is not ? Thank you for your answers 👍👍
